Game Of The Week: Hey! That's My Fish!

So, sometimes games are a little silly. Certainly that's the case with this little gem from Mayfair Games. You gotta love a simple fifteen minute game that's easy to play but deceptively strategic, and this game certainly fits the bill. Hey! That's My Fish! sends your penguins on a quest to collect fish.

As a kid I always hated games like hungry hungry hippos... They always seemed to be entirely luck. The best games rely on both luck and skill, and this one fits the bill well. Silly premise, but fairly cool game play. The board, like many modern games, is not static, but it's still fairly simple, a random layout of hex pieces. It's not a deep thought game - and I imagine it's probably easy to get a little sick of it if you play it too often, but it makes a nice filler game while you're waiting for one of those massive 3 hour games to start.
